Filter by:This randomized phase III trial studies sunitinib malate to see how well it works compared to sorafenib tosylate or placebo in treating patients with kidney cancer that has been removed by surgery. Sunitinib malate and sorafenib tosylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving sunitinib malate or sorafenib tosylate after surgery may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery. It is not yet known whether sunitinib malate is more effective than sorafenib tosylate or placebo in treating kidney cancer.
This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of vorinostat when given together with bevacizumab and to see how well they work in treating patients with unresectable or metastatic kidney cancer. Vorinostat may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Bevacizumab may also stop the growth of kidney cancer by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving vorinostat together with bevacizumab may kill more tumor cells.
This phase II trial is studying how well AZD2171 works in treating patients with refractory metastatic kidney cancer. AZD2171 may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor.
The purpose of this study is to see if an antibody (cG250) attached to a radioactive substance (Iodine-124) safely detects clear cell renal cancer in patients with kidney tumors scheduled for surgery.
This phase I/II trial will evaluate the bevacizumab/erlotinib combination with the addition of imatinib (Gleevec). The combined inhibition greatly enhances the anti-tumor effects. Although the safety of the bevacizumab/erlotinib/imatinib combination has not yet been demonstrated, the mild to moderate side effects of all of these agents are not predicted to cause prohibitive toxicity. A brief phase I portion will be included in this trial, to optimize doses of the 3 agents prior to proceeding with the phase II trial.
This phase II trial is studying how well ixabepilone works in treating patients with metastatic, recurrent, or unresectable kidney cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as ixabepilone, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing
Sorafenib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving sorafenib before and after surgery may be an effective treatment for kidney cancer. This phase II trial is studying how well sorafenib works in treating patients who are undergoing surgery for metastatic kidney cancer.
This randomized phase II trial is studying sorafenib and interferon alfa-2b to see how well they work compared to sorafenib alone in treating patients with metastatic kidney cancer. Sorafenib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Interferon alfa-2b may interfere with the growth of tumor cells. Sorafenib and interferon alfa-2b may also block blood flow to the tumor. Giving sorafenib together with interferon alfa-2b may kill more tumor cells.
This phase I/II trial studies the side effects and best dose of sorafenib tosylate and bevacizumab and to see how well they work in treating patients with advanced kidney cancer. Sorafenib tosylate may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth by targeting certain cells. Bevacizumab and sorafenib tosylate may also stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving sorafenib tosylate together with bevacizumab may kill more tumor cells.
This phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of CCI-779 and bevacizumab and to see how well they work in treating patients with metastatic or unresectable kidney cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as CCI-779, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some find tumor cells and kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Others interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Bevacizumab may also stop the growth of kidney cancer by blocking blood flow to the tumor. Giving CCI-779 together with bevacizumab may kill more tumor cells.
